We cannot know the precise hour of Jesus’ return, but we can be sure that the signs that he’s already told us to watch for are sure indicators that the end of the age is very near. Rather than obsessing over the precise hour of Jesus’ return, we should remember that as long as Jesus has not yet come back, he’s extending his kindness toward all. Like Peter says, “He is being patient for your sake. He does not want anyone to be destroyed, but wants everyone to repent.” Jesus goes on to explain how we ought to live in the meantime.
